A species of rabbit lives in a grassland ecosystem. Rabbits of this species have brown fur that allows them to blend in with the

ir environment.
Suppose a population of this rabbit species is moved to a snowy Arctic ecosystem. Which adaptation would most likely help this species survive in its new location?

A.
The fur of the rabbit species becomes shorter over time.
B.
Over time, the rabbits of the species stop growing any fur.
C.
The fur of the rabbit species changes over time from brown to white.
D.
The fur of the rabbit species changes over time from brown to black.

A cubic piece of platinum metal (specific heat capacity = 0.1256 J/°C･g) at 200.0°C is dropped into 1.00 L of deuterium oxide ('

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

$a=5.65cm$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for this heat transfer process in which the heat lost by the hot platinum is gained by the cold deuterium oxide based on the equation:

$Q_{Pt}=-Q_{Deu}$

We can represent the heats in terms of mass, heat capacities and temperatures:

$m_{Pt}Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})=-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})$

Thus, we solve for the mass of platinum:

$m_{Pt}=\frac{-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})}{Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})} \\\\m_{Pt}=\frac{-1.00L*1110g/L*4.211J/(g\°C)*(41.9-25.5)\°C}{0.1256J/(g\°C)*(41.9-200.0)\°C} \\\\m_{Pt}=3860.4g$

Next, by using the density of platinum we compute the volume:

$V_{Pt}=\frac{3860.4g}{21.45g/cm^3}\\ \\V_{Pt}=180cm^3$

Which computed in terms of the edge length is:

$V=a^3$

Therefore, the edge length turns out:

$a=\sqrt[3]{180cm^3}\\ \\a=5.65cm$

Best regards.

The gas cyclobutane, C4H8(g), can be used in welding. When cyclobutane is burned in oxygen, the reaction is: C4H8(g) + 6 O2(g)4

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

a

$\Delta H^o _{rxn} = -2568.9 \ kJ$

b

$H = 350 JK^{-1}$

c

$T_{max} = 32.4 ^o C$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The reaction of cyclobutane and oxygen is

$C_4H_8_{(g)} + 6 O_2_{(g)} \to 4 CO_2_{(g)} + 4 H_2O_{(g)}$

ΔH°f (kJ mol-1) : C4H8(g) = 27.7 ; CO2(g) = -393.5 ; H2O(g) = -241.8 ΔH° = kJ

Generally ΔH° for this reaction is mathematically represented as

$\Delta H^o _{rxn} = [[4 * \Delta H^o_f (CO_2_{(g)} ) + 4 * \Delta H^o_f(H_2O_{(g)} ] -[\Delta H^o_f (C_2H_6_{(g)} + 6 * \Delta H^o_f (O_2_{(g)}) ] ]$

=> $\Delta H^o _{rxn} = [[4 * (-393.5) + 4 * (-241.8) ] -[ 27.7 + 6 * 0]$

=> $\Delta H^o _{rxn} = -2568.9 \ kJ$

Generally the total heat capacity of 4 mol of CO2(g) and 4 mol of H2O(g), using CCO2(g) = 37.1 J K-1 mol-1 and CH2O(g) = 33.6 J K-1 mol-1. C = J K-1 is mathematically represented as

$H = [ 4 * C_{CO_2_{(g)}} + 6* C_{CH_2O_{(g)}}]$

=> $H = [ 4 * 37.1 + 6* 33.6 ]$

=> $H = 350 JK^{-1}$

From the question the initial temperature of reactant is $T_i = 25^oC$

Generally the enthalpy change( $\Delta H^o _{rxn}$ ) of the reaction is mathematically represented as

$|\Delta H^o _{rxn} |= H * (T_{max} -T_i)$

$2568.9 = 350 * (T_{max} -25)$

=> $\frac{2568.9 }{350} = T_{max} - 25$

=> $T_{max} = 32.4 ^o C$

Analysis of Potassium-40 / Argon-40 determines that 37.5% of the Potassium-40 remains and 62.5% has decayed to Argon-40. What is

likoan [24]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

t = 1.95 billion years.

Explanation:

Radioactive decay follows a first order reaction kinetics.

On solving the dynamic equation (the differential equation), this is obtained

C(t) = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

C(t) = amount of radioactive material remaining after time t = 37.5%

C₀ = Initial amount of radioactive material = 100%

t = time that has passed = ?

k = decay constant.

For a first order reaction, the decay constant is related to the half life through the relation

k = (In 2)/T

T = half life = 1.38 billion years

k = (In 2)/1.38

k = 0.5023 per billion years.

C(t) = C₀ e⁻ᵏᵗ

0.375 = e⁻ᵏᵗ

e⁻ᵏᵗ = 0.375

In e⁻ᵏᵗ = In 0.375 = -0.981

-kt = -0.981

t = (0.981/0.5023) = 1.95 billion years.

Hope this Helps!!!
